Greg Laurie: A New Beginning

They say Thomas Edison failed ten thousand times to make a viable electric light bulb. When asked about all those strikeouts, Edison would reportedly say, “I have not failed. I've just found 10,000 ways that won't work.” Today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie helps us explore the failure of a certain apostle. He did the unthinkable, but we’ll see the Lord responded with the unexpected. Spiritual failure came face to face with divine mercy.

Nothing takes the place of a sold-out relationship with the Lord. Not a big check in the offering plate, not packing a pew with friends and relatives on Sunday morning, not even the “God is my co-pilot” bumper stick on the back of the car. No, as Pastor Greg Laurie points out today on A NEW BEGINNING, Jesus doesn’t so much want what we have or what we can do. He wants us. He wants to be in first place, top priority, in our lives. And He wants us to follow Him.

Adulthood toughens us. Every time we’re lied to, let down, or taken advantage of, we build a thicker skin and vow, “Never again.” Over time, that can make us skeptical, and even cynical. But today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie reminds us that a hardened heart can’t fully connect with God. It’s like we’re turtles hiding in our shells, keeping everyone out. But good news is coming. Pastor Greg helps us come out of that shell and open our hearts to the Lord.

Modern radios are very selective. They pick up one station at a time. So as you listen to A NEW BEGINNING, you’re not hearing the latest hit on the Polka Parade, or pork belly prices from the farm report. Today, Pastor Greg Laurie points out we need to be just as selective with our hearing. It’s all too easy to let the voices of our culture plant ideas and values in our heads. But today, we’ll see two brokenhearted individuals who were tuned in to Jesus.

A miracle is defined as “a surprising and welcome event that is not explainable by natural or scientific laws and is therefore considered to be the work of a divine agency.” Essentially, something awesome: God did it. So many of us have needed a miracle at times . . . maybe you need one right now. Well today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie talks about these kind of supernatural events, and what part our faith plays in the story. Good encouragement is coming.

It makes no sense to complain the car won’t start if it’s out of gas. It makes no sense to complain about sitting in the dark if we haven’t turned on the light switch. Well, when it comes to Christianity, author G.K. Chesterton said, “The Christian ideal has not been tried and found wanting. It has been found difficult; and left untried.” Today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie helps us try a real walk with God. It offers joy and contentment, and dispels loneliness and discouragement.

Easter is not only a time to reflect on what happened to Jesus, but what can happen to you.

This Easter 2026, Pastor Greg Laurie shares a message for anyone who has failed, fallen, or feels like they've gone too far. From John 21, we look at Simon Peter, who denied Jesus, yet was personally restored by Him.

In this special episode, Pastor Greg Laurie relates the incredible personal experience Simon Peter had with Jesus on the first Easter. After stumbling through his own pride, this bold disciple encounters Jesus in a special way as recorded in John 21. It's a reminder that redemption can come even after a great fall.

Bible scholars have pointed out that the Bible tells us to fear not about 365 times. 365. Enough for a daily dose of reassurance. And don’t we all need it? Every day, there are plenty of reasons for worry, fear and panic. Today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie points out the Easter season is a great opportunity for a fresh outlook on life and its challenges. All based on the fact that Jesus conquered the grave.

Think of all the things we do to stay alive. We fasten our seat belts. We buy fire extinguishers and smoke alarms. We lock our doors. We wear sunscreen. We take our vitamins and look both ways before we cross the street. We don’t want to die. But today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie points out how death has already died. We’ll see that’s the central message of Easter, and today we’ll find out that’s our eternal hope.
